2013 NFL Draft - Saints Big Board

Xavier Rhodes, CB/SS Florida State
the more i watch this kid the more i see him a modern day CB/SS tweener. I am not sold he is the second best CB in the draft. I will say this he might be the best tackler in the secondary this year. Now as a SS he is scary.

Desmond Trufant, CB, Washington
is a better option for a true CB but at 15? i am not sold he is even that good. Not sure he has those kind of skills - yet

Johnthan Banks, CB/FS, Mississippi State
like Rhodes i see him as tweener but with much better hands and CB skills. he is better than second rounder

David Amerson*, CB, N.C. State
here is the total physical package at cb but i have not seen a good reason for the mental melt down he suffered last year.

IMO it is a reach at 15 for any of the CB's unless you are toying with idea the player can transition.
